I have a bronze powerbook 400MHz with 6 GB disk. When I started to use
yaboot (0.6) with my 2.2.15pre9 kernel it would hang as soon as it printed
first line that wouldn't fit on the screen, i.e. when it had to scroll the
display. I remember Benjamin writing to this list once, that the bronze
powerbook is the one new world machine, which is not yet fully supported
by yaboot, and cold booting through BootX is a must.
